Military ATC Phraseology
It's very easy to complain about the amount of R/T phraseology used by RAF ATCOs and having served as an RAF ATCO for nearly 40 years I agree that a lot of it should be ditched.
However, remember that the RAF ATC Specialisation has a relatively minor input into what has to be transmitted in certain circumstances, the majority of the people that sit on the committees that makes these decision are aircrew!!
